[PS][***]Rendering/(sorta)Transparency

[Wired]

Well if you want to make a sig or something transparent, first, make it one layer. [skip this step if it is not a sig.] To do this, make a new layer and go to image>apply image. Then make all the stuff under it invisiable. [Ok, back on track] The pen tool is a great tool for cutting. All you have to do is place the anchors around the places you want to cut, complete the circuit, and then select it in the paths menu. Then erase that selection. You'll know it's transparent when you see the checkered grey and white. Then for everyone to see it in transparency, I just found .gif works with IE, and probably Firefox too. .Png's usually only work for FF.



Yeah. For transparencies just leave it on the checkered gray thing and save it as a .gif.

waitwhat?

You can also use the magic eraser tool at different tolerance levels. Thats what I use.

Sorry to seem harsh or mean or whatever, but this isn't a very good tutorial at all. : / People who are new to this would have no idea what you're doing, and there's no explanations whatsoever on what to do, what tools to use, etc, etc.

Yeah I kinda know that, but I'm figuring this should be more for experienced people who want to know how to render. I added a breif description to this just now.

[Panique]

This.. doesn't really explain anything.

[Ed]

Agreed.

I don't really see the point of this 'tut' at all, you don't explain much. ;/

Hehe, I finally tried this out last night. It helped.
